Mobile Car Detailing Resource
Going Mobile: Batten Down the Hatch
It is all too common to be driving down the road or highway and see something along the side of the road like a towel or brush. You might wonder if someone is losing their laundry as they travel but more likely than not, these items will belong to a business owner.
Mobile car detailers must take special care to secure all of their supplies and equipment inside their vehicles. Otherwise, if they are careless in just this way, they can expect to lose some of their inventory and, of course, their profits!
Before leaving on your next mobile detailing call check to ensure the following:
? your towels are packed down
? there is no loose paper or trash taken from previous cars laying around loose in the truck bed or on the mobile detailing trailer
? the pressure hose is rolled up
? the vacuum hoses are secure
? no products or supply containers under one-quarter full are laying around
? operational flood lights wont be whipped around in the wind
In addition, check your vacuum hoses for holes and every day wear and tear. As your power cords are moved from here to there watch for rips as they are dragged around tires. Your electric buffers, carpet extractors and vacuums wont do the job if they are damaged.
Once your pressure washer guns have been dragged behind a vehicle they might never work quite right again and if they catch on a tire it could rip the entire pressure washer, unloader assemble or hose entirely from the vehicle or trailer.
Use sensible precautions and protect your investment!
Otherwise, if they are careless in just this way, they can expect to lose some of their inventory and, of course, their profits! Define Your Standard of Quality To be successful, you are going to have to walk the walk and not just talk the talk as some car detailing businesses will. With two people running the business, each can have more time with their families and friends. Several coats of a good paste wax will provide a barrier between the paint and these contaminants. Businesses that open in a hard to get to area often find themselves without customers, but this is not the only problem with location. This is a nice way to cross advertise. |
